With a rather conventional MacPherson strut-type front suspension and trailing-arm rear suspension. with a stabilizer bar in back. the Impala is tuned to bring a smooth ride yet handle reasonably responsively. The body and suspension systems were designed to include some significant sound-deadening measures. which make the Impala quiet on the highway and over coarse surfaces.

In back. there's enough room for three adults across. and the seatbacks fold forward for a full pass-through to the trunk for larger cargo items. There's a storage tub under the rear cushions.

LT models get larger machined aluminum wheels. a remote start system. dual-zone climate control and Bluetooth hands-free. At the top of the range. the LTZ comes equipped as a more sophisticated. somewhat sporty sedan. with upgraded wheels and W-rated tires. heated seats. heated mirrors. a universal remote. and Bose audio. All sound systems include an auxiliary input. The available remote-start system in the Impala is claimed to work up to 200 feet away. and will pre-heat or cool the vehicle.
